Plants that heal fields
Can certain plants make the fields healthier?
Agriculture is under great pressure. Every year, part of the arable land has to be used for ecological compensation measures and less and less fertilizer and spraying is allowed. In the "Biodiversity in Agriculture" project, Jana Dörnchen-Neumann and her team from the Faculty of Natural and Environmental Sciences worked with farmers to investigate how biodiversity is faring on areas with compensation measures - with some very pleasing results!
The next step is to work with the farmers to see whether chemical sprays can be replaced by growing very special plants. See for yourself:
In a new video series, we show the diversity of preliminary research at the HSZG. These research projects are made possible with funding from the Saxon state parliament.
The following have already been presented
- the "Cobot" project with a focus on collaborative robots,
- the "Experience Economy in Cultural and Health Tourism" project with a focus on experiential tourism of the future
- the project "Evidence-proof standardization of breath alcohol levels" and
- the "Trust in assistance technologies" project on inclusion (VATI).
